Phoenix insisting that no one else knows the ~real~ Edgeworth but him is deeply funny. You didn’t know him. You didn’t know him back when he was 9 years old.

Something I'm thinking VERY hard about is how Starbuck sort of inspired Phoenix to start seeing himself as a mentor to Athena and Apollo. This assumption happened already before with Pearl in 5-6. She assumes Phoenix is Athena's mentor. But it seems Phoenix finally accepts that kinda role after seeing how good of a role model Starbuck was to Clay.
Apollo apparently told Starbuck about Phoenix. I can just imagine Apollo fanboying about him to Starbuck, and then suddenly Phoenix is his boss and he kinda sucks lol. It seems whatever Apollo said, Starbuck seems to assume from that that Phoenix is his mentor. I wonder what Apollo told about Phoenix?
It seems that he's also happy that Apollo has a mentor in Phoenix! (Though the poor guy does not know their relationship is still in repairs from aa4 lol)
That kinda sounds like Athena, Apollo and Phoenix's dynamic. At this point, I think the writer's might've been pushing for a parallel between Phoenix and Apollo and Starbuck and Clay. The game drew attention to Apollo and Clay's voice training, and Starbuck told Phoenix and Athena how Clay's "you're fine!" encourages him.
This clearly connects Clay and Apollo as the protégés- and the fact Starbuck finally convinced Phoenix he got that mentor in him makes me think this is intentional.
And if we're doing literary analysis... If "you're fine!" encourages Starbuck, does it encourage Phoenix too? That would be kinda goofy, especially since Phoenix in this same exact scene seems to be embarrassed by screaming that he's fine lmao

playing aa trilogy: look how creepy and unsettling von karma is for taking in edgeworth, he was making nefarious plans from the start
playing aa investigations: he did it because he certainly wasn’t interested in parenting and knew franziska would need a babysitter

first day of law school
#HEAR ME OUT OKAY#i think#i think when apollo first started out in law he probably looked up to phoenix. i mean hes the turnabout terror#and you've got some lines that allude to that i feel like. you know like “there's no way he did it! not him!”#and how every attorney in his generation knows wright and co law offices#and like. the punch. it felt more like a personal betrayal. to me#but moving on. their hair right#phoenix has a bit of a hair horn thing going on if you look at the general shape#its just. down instead of up#are you with me. do you see it. take my hand#aa#my art

I got a lot of issues with SoJ as a whole but man I can't help but love phoenixs design in it (excluding changing his eye color) cuz like they're such minor changes but they feel so major. dunno what it is about that little piece of hair that won't lay down that adds So Much
i guess it's because they make him look older, in a way? more mature in the way you'd expect a Seasoned Lawyer to look like. like you've got the little piece of hair that won't stay down you've got the new waistcoat you've got the golden chain of the locket. overall i think it's a really good design! which, if i'm gonna be honest here, is why i sort of have a problem with it. phoenix isn't a seasoned lawyer! he wasn't even a lawyer for three full years before getting disbarred! and although he was working on the mason system that doesn't exactly. Count. the man was wearing comfy clothes for seven years straight you'd think he'd at least complain a little bit about having to wear a stuffy suit all the time again. it's like i love the suit i love the new look but it just contributes to the feeling that he's acting so extremely Fake
#i think the 3d games could've been slightly improved if it was implied that the Reason phoenix is Acting Like That#is because he's putting on a show. his name is cleared! it's all better now! and now everyone wants the turnabout terror back.#so he'll act like the turnabout terror. he'll even dress the part. because it's what everyone else seems to want from him#yknow!!! just SOMETHING like that#asks

bc i will be ajpilled & aa4maxxing tmrrw, yeets this into post format abt nick re kris
i do think phoenix felt legitimately that he had an ally in all the initial hurricane after the gramarye case & the bar almost unanimously voting to revoke phoenix's attorney's badge, because the idea of only one voice in a sea of naysayers supporting him did Not feel out of place, because so often He's been that voice for others (because miles was once that voice for Him). it was not the first time a single voice had broken a unanimous vote for "guilty". he had felt the precedent for "almost"s coming to save him.
it's not until months if not a year or so later when something just ... clicks, & phoenix is has a moment of oh fuck. shit, it was him. it was his fault. but then he gets stuck in that space of, a forgery is bad yeah but it's not Murder or anything, so he can find it somewhere in him to forgive that, even if he was the one hurt by it. because he's forgiven a lot of people a lot of bad things just because he's gotten attached to them, & even if their friendship is built on a lie & is a lie it's still ... there. & they're a part of each other's lives no matter what now. & hey, maybe kris got screwed over in there too, right, because lana committed perjury & tampered with evidence & miles had to present tampered evidence but there were extenuating circumstances beyond their faults, so maybe kristoph is similar right??? right?????? & it's just phoenix wright & his shitty "i can fix them" savior complex against the world again,,,,,
but the more he looks into it, the less he sees it being beyond kristoph's control & then ... the shadi thing happens. & it's just. he could've forgiven the manipulation & gaslighting & the implicating him of forgery & just so much ... but he never expected kris to be capable of stooping to murder, let alone something as raw as bashing someone's head in. so the first night at the detention center is really just spent mostly having his entire world rocked Once Again, because he really didn't ever figure kris out, but he can't focus on that because he's got a trial plan to figure out, so it's only after the trial that he gets to fully just. have a crisis about All That.
#it's not so much that nick wants to fix every broken thing he sees#but more like. because their lives get entangled phoenix feels he Owes it to the other person to give them the benefit of the doubt#no matter how much it bites him in the ass#& that feeling of Owing it to them only grows the more entangled they are & the more the other's helped him#so he tries to rationalize & contextualize every bad thing about them to make them be Good in his eyes#which makes him very susceptible to the kind of toxic situationship he gets into w kris#but he's grown a little since dahlia so while the turnabout terror might be out of court he's still a table-turner#once he realizes it's kristoph that forged the evidence the manipulations turn mutual#& the more the evidence says kris was entirely responsible for his own actions...... the more their friendship becomes a 5d chess match#because even while phoenix wants to find it in him to forgive it all he still wants to bring the truth into light#which would mean betrayal & a turnabout of what kristoph's actions did to phoenix#in nick's mind there was this stupid foolish hope that once the air was cleared they could let bygones be bygones. at least He could.#but then kris killed zak & that hope for a future with forgiveness got thoroughly waterboarded#it def still kills nick he never truly figured kris out. especially after the psychelocks.#the hope mightve gotten waterboarded but it's still choking & gasping somewhere in phoenix#ooc. butterdog. the dog with the butter.#phoenix. study.

my piece for missing years: @7yeargapzine, which just opened leftover sales! this is one of my favorite projects i've worked on and i couldn't be more amazed with how the zine turned out, so please consider checking it out!
[ID: A digital illustration depicting Vera Misham from Ace Attorney, sitting in a chair with her knees up and her back turned to the viewer. She works at a desk filled half with art supplies and half with machinery. A thin desk lamp looms over head, along with four static-filled screens, all of which illuminate where she sits like a spotlight. The edges of the light are textured like fingerprints. Strewn across the floor is a vast collage of maps and newspaper clippings relating to the events of the seven year gap and the dark age of the law. In the background, two of Kristoph's hand-shaped bottles of nail polish hang in front of a map clipping, with the lines of the roads segmenting the collage like cracked glass. 13 of the various newspaper clippings, from left to right, are as follows. 1) "State v. Blackquill Results in Yet Another Prosecutor's Arrest. Protestors Claim The Dark Age of the Law Has Arrived." 2) "Wrongfully Accused: An Exclusive Interview With Max Galactica." Beside the headline is a photo of Max dressed in a white sweater and crying. 3) "Execution - Date After." 4) "Turnabout Terror Disbarred After Shocking Revelation in the Courtroom." Beside the headline is an obscured photo of Phoenix pointing and objecting. 5) "Gramarye Troupe." The rest of the headline is obscured. Under it is an illustration of someone wearing a pink magician's hat and cloak, a question mark over their face. 6) "Forgery - Unprecedented." 7) "Opinion: The Three Day Trial System Has Failed Our Country." 8) "Los Tokyo Residents Face Unrest as Guity - Rate - 99%." 9) "A New Turnabout Terror on the Rise? Kristoph Gavin Sweeps Courtroom - Legal." 10) "Did the Dark Age of the Law Really Begin With Phoenix Wright's Disbarment?" 11) "A Candid Retrospective on Demon Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth's Messy Legacy." 12) "Public Trust - Japanifornia Courts." 13) "Impossible Turnabout Captivates Courtroom: Evidence Real or Fake?" End ID.]
#hi i've made like four big project related art posts this week so that lined up in a fun way#ace attorney#aa#vera misham#7yg#described#described in alt text#there is nothing i love more than the semi dystopian implications of the ace attorney world#sorry about the long id i had to move it out of alt text because it was too long. tumblr alt function stop sucking challenge#frogs.art

Okay here's a thing I thought about recently
You can tell the new writers didn't know what to do with Apollo because they kept trying to give him new gimmicks / motivations both times. First he's suddenly got a bestie he'll go insane for. Then he's got a whole secret childhood in a different country.
Meanwhile, Phoenix is RIGHT THERE with 7 years of unused time!! And they give him nothing. Not a single new thing is added to him. Worse, they even revert him to his original trilogy bluster and pretend his days as the cold poker player don't exist or matter. They actively take characterisation away from Phoenix.
Because Phoenix is the self-insert, right? Obviously, he can't have too much detail on him, he's here for the player to project themselves onto. It's not like he has his own wild characterisation (changing his entire life trajectory to meet his friend he knew for like 3 months of his childhood again, willingly and seriously cross-examining a parrot, refusing to elabourate on his past to the point of pretending his old friend is legitimately dead). It's not like he's grown at all from those experiences and should be less prone to falling to despair about his cases going off the rails (6-1 is the biggest offender to me in this regard; I get this is a higher stakes gambit than he expected, but my dude this is the first case you cannot throw out the despair pose like that it lacks any emotional impact and actively takes me out of the moment).
It's just very telling to me that, instead of utilising what possibilities they have (7 whole years!!), they pretend it's a complete blank for Phoenix. It may as well have just been a blink of an eye, it doesn't matter for him. It's less missing time and more just a single step over the issue.
Also this is petty but "King of Bluff"??? Why would that be his name. I hate this. Call him the "Turnabout Terror" he's THE Turnabout guy!! Any Prosecutor worth their salt should know by now that when their case seems to be going their way and they're close to that Guilty verdict, that's when they need to be afraid. That's when Phoenix Wright pulls out the most bullshit small detail and flips everything on its head. Pray he does not accuse you of being involved because it's a 50/50 chance he will tear open your secrets to reveal what crimes you are guilty of. Acting as if the guy who focuses in on the smaller details and is 90% of the time right on the money is lying his ass off is just wild to me. He may be putting on airs that these details are more important than he initially thinks, that he's flying by the seat of his pants, but his track record does not lie. The hoops we have to jump to be the underdog at all times is wild when we're inherently underdogs just from our profession alone, especially in this world.
Anyway yeah. Weird they chose to fuss with Apollo's character and story twice over when Phoenix is right there, with empty time to fill in, and yet he has negative character growth instead. Very telling of them.
#Momo writes stuff#Essay time for Momo#Ace Attorney#Phoenix Wright#Apollo Justice#meta analysis#mild spoilers#I guess#Phoenix changing so wildly that I couldn't connect to him at all sticks with me#He was such a great character trick in the original trilogy#What the hell happened#I might be getting there slowly
